Chapter 72 Come Knocking at the Door
“I really don’t know what your grandfather is thinking. He actually got in touch with the family of country bumpkins again. Based on the Zhou family’s current abilities, why do we have to keep contacting them?”
To Qian Yun, people who were beneficial to her were friends, whereas those who were not beneficial to her had nothing to do with her. She would never lower her social status to socialize with a bunch of people from the countryside who did not have money or power.
“Mom, I don’t want to get engaged to Jiang Ping. You saw her when she was young. Don’t you know how fat she is? In any case, I don’t like fat people.”
“Son, the little girl was young and didn’t develop a sense of love for beauty? Girls change at 18 years old. Now, Jiang Ping is a slim and fashionable beauty. She’s no longer the fat and snot-nosed little girl when she was young.”!!
Seeing that her son was only worried about the appearance of Jiang Ping, Qian Yun was relieved. After all, she still felt that her son had a deep affection for that village girl.
“I don’t care. I don’t want to see Jiang Ping, and I don’t want to be engaged to her!”
This was the first time in a long time that Zhou Mo had gotten so angry with his mother. Perhaps it was the rebellious period that all boys had! He did not want to obey his parents and wanted to decide his future.
After saying this, Zhou Mo did not care about his mother’s feelings. He did not even eat dinner and locked himself in his room.
Qian Yun revealed a bitter smile. How could he be like this? He did not give her any face at all.
Nonetheless, she was not overly worried. She just felt that the child had not grown up yet. When he matured, he would understand her efforts.
Zhou Mo still felt that his mother did not understand him. Early the next morning, he ran to the Zhou family’s old residence, hoping to find comfort with his goddess.
He had just arrived when there was a knock on the Zhou family’s old residence’s door.
Zhou Mo had guessed who it was. He did not bother with it at all and directly hid in a corner of the Zhou family’s old residence’s living room.
For an old man of Old Master Zhou’s level, the military compound was equipped with security guards. The security guards obviously recognized Qian Yun, so they let her into the Zhou family’s old residence without even thinking
Grandpa Zhou thought that his old friend had delivered the mountain goods to him. He was so happy that he wanted to go out to receive it, but he saw his daughter-in-law’s face.
“Dad, I’m here to see Zhou Mo.”
Qian Yun went straight to the point the moment she entered the door. She knew that Grandpa Zhou did not like to beat around the bush.
“Pingping, this is Zhou Mo’s grandfather. You can call him Grandpa Zhou.”
“Hello, Grandpa Zhou.”
Standing behind Qian Yun, Jiang Ping politely greeted Grandpa Zhou. “Hello, Pingping.”
Grandpa Zhou also politely returned the greeting and returned to his room with his walking stick. He thought that he was quite old and should retire from matters between young people long ago. His children and grandchildren would have their own futures.
“Zhou Mo, why didn’t you tell me when you left this morning? Look, Pingping even came to look for you.”
“Hello, Auntie Qian.”
Yun Lian watched Qian Yun walk past the sofa in front of her and greeted her softly.
Qian Yun ignored the other two girls in the room and directly chatted with her son. She treated these two rural girls as if they were nothing to her.
Zhou Mo looked at Jiang Ping. The girl in front of him was just like her mother had said. She was completely different from when she was young. Jiang Ping had a slim figure now. She was wearing a white lace dress and looked very elegant.
Jiang Ping’s skin was especially fair. Compared to Yun Lian next to him, they were heaven and earth apart.
“Brother Mo, long time no see.”
Just as Zhou Mo’s mother had said, this girl was completely different from when she was young. However, as a painting art student, Zhou Mo valued the romance of meeting his partner. Moreover, without Yun Lian, he would not even be alive. He always felt that the kind of meeting arranged by his family had lost its meaning
Besides, now that Zhou Mo thought about his mother wanting to bring him and Jiang Ping together, he became rebellious again. He kept moving closer to Yun Lian and did not want to pay attention to Jiang Ping, who was standing next to his mother.
